Q1
What is meant by ‘lanthanoid contraction’?
Marks:1Answer:
There is a gradual decrease in atomic and ionic radii of lanthanoids (from lanthanum to lutetium) with an increase in atomic number. This is known as ‘lanthanoid contraction’.

-
Q3
Define order of a reaction.
Marks:1Answer:
Order of a reaction is the sum of the exponents to which the concentration terms are raised in the rate law expression.

Q5
What are lyophobic colloids? Give one example for them.
Marks:1Answer:
The colloidal systems in which the particles of dispersed phase have no or very little affinity for the dispersion medium are called lyophobic colloids.
Example: sols of silica, silver iodide, metal sulphides.

Q6
Why is it that only sulphide ores are concentrated by ‘froath floatation process’?
Marks:1Answer:
Only sulphide ores are concentrated by froth floatation process because the surface of sulphide ores is preferentially wetted by oils while that of gangue is preferentially wetted by water.
